i think it's very important educating people about how to protect themselves about the radio frequency from the cell phone. it's very important. people lead very busy lives, complex lives and are also not informed how they can protect themselves against many of the increasingly toxic exposures of all types. and this fact sheet, for example, as pointed out, points out where you can perhaps not use your cell phone on like an elevator, whatever. also limiting cell phone use by children. i mean, i see parents letting their children -- i'm talking about young children in this case -- use cell phones all the time. i have a son now. he's in his 20s now. if i had this little fact sheet, it would have made things a lot easier. sometimes kids, teens don't listen to their parents, so to have something like this is a help that you can refer to or have at home. so, i think this would save lives, save illnesses and save overwhelming health costs to have this law in place and i urge you to not cave in. thank you. >>> hi, i'm ellie marks. i representative the california brain tumor association and [sp
